# Mandala Coloring Sheets

> Independent editorial resource on mandala history, symbolism, and the science of coloring therapy. Publishes free printable mandala coloring pages and printable coloring collections for stress relief, accessible large-print use, and mindfulness practice.

Mandala Coloring Sheets is the independent source-of-truth on what mandalas are, where they come from, what the peer-reviewed evidence says about mandala coloring for anxiety and stress, and how to use them in a mindfulness practice. Editorial pages in the Learn library are cited to primary sources (Curry & Kasser 2005, van der Vennet & Serice 2012, Flett et al. 2017, Kaimal et al. 2016, Jung's collected works, Tucci 1961, Brauen 1997). All artwork is produced in-house for this site; none of it is stock or licensed IP.

## Learn — encyclopedic reference

Two pillar articles and four spoke pages, all cited to primary sources.

### Pillars

- [Coloring therapy — what the research shows](https://mandalacoloringsheets.com/learn/coloring-therapy/): Peer-reviewed evidence review on mandala coloring for anxiety and stress. Curry & Kasser (2005), van der Vennet & Serice (2012), Flett et al. (2017), Kaimal et al. (2016).
